Smells like TMS to me. The way it started and spread on the right side and then a week later on the left.
I deal with similar issues and have for some years. Haven’t had much relief and have read most the books etc. I can tell you this - while I have not found relief from my pain in...
Sorry for your trouble.
I get IBS like symptoms but only my days off work. I’ll be in the bathroom 3-4 times before noon.
Very seldom experience this on days I am in the office. What’s hilarious about this shit is that I hate my job. I guess things must not be so great at home either huh...
So yeah….quite often I get bowel problems but only on my day off. The rest the time no issues.
Think about that kids.
Another manifestation of the olde TMS. I can laugh off the IBS but the 24/7 chronic pain..,it’s a bitch.
Hey man I want to chime in and say I have very similar symptoms. They are persisting but I’m fairly sure it’s TMS since I’m a TMS type and have had many bouts before.
Bro check this out - I had a super stressful day this week at work and had to deal with a person who is 100% a trigger for me...
It seems to me that reason we get sick and then sicker is often not just one life event or scenario but the compounding “death spiral” where one problem piled on the other and chronic pain makes it damned hard to address all of them. So here is little inventory I thought up to help. I have made...
TOS and RSI get very little regard around here and I reckon rightly so.
I haven’t recovered and I’m fact am sicker than ever but the symptoms are shifting. Getting more emotional. I’m trying to open that space. And sometimes it works.
I still think I need to and will quit my job. Not a good...
Eddy Lindenstein from the Mind and Fitness podcast dealt with TOS. Here’s a post about his recovery. His podcast is worthwhile and he is accessible via email and a cool guy who gets this stuff.

Thanks for reply Baseball65. It's amazing what TMS can do. Hell I wonder if some heart attacks are TMS.
What was really bad here is the guilt I feel. Guilt and shame are huge triggers for me. Solution is twofold. One- be thoughtful with thoughts/words/actions. Two be forgiving to yourself...
Thanks Tamara I will check it out.
Feeling some better today. Still not all resolved. But good lord did the pain hammer me. I used the time in bed to read a bunch of mind body stuff.
I did something stupid that hurt my wife’s feelings. She is super pissed at me, and now I can barely walk. The usual FM numbness and tingling times 300%. Very scary.
Anyone else had this happen?
